MORE INFORMATION

CD-ROM: Contains Copy Of Programming Visual Basic 6.0

This title correctly contains an electronic copy of Francesco Balena's "Programming Microsoft Visual Basic 6.0." There is no electronic copy of "Programming Microsoft Visual Basic .NET" available at this time.

Components Setup Button On Startup Page Does Not Work

During VS.Net Professional Trial DVD setup, selecting the Components Setup link button on the bottom of the startup page results in the following error:

"Could not find the file: drive:\ServerSetup.hta"

This remote component is not supported for the trial SKU, and this error message is expected. This button should be disregarded.

Page 177: Incorrect Array Definition

On page 177, in the second code snippet, the number of members defined is incorrect.

Change:

' You can define up to four addresses for this person,
' from Address(0) to Address(3).
Public Address(4) as String


To:
' You can define up to four addresses for this person,
' from Address(0) to Address(3).
Public Address() as String


Page 181: InstrWholeWord Should Be InstrWord

On page 181, in the second code snippet showing Function InstrWord, the Return statement calls the wrong function.

Change:
"Return InstrWholeWord(1, source, search, CompareMethod.Binary)"

To:
"Return InstrWord(1, source, search, CompareMethod.Binary)"

Page 181: InstrWholeWord Should Be InstrWord

In the IntelliSense graphic just above the final paragraph on page 181, InstrWholeWord needs to be changed to InstrWord in the "result = ..." line and in the Intellisense box "#2 of 2# InstrWholeWord(...."

Page 916: Missing Text

Page 916 is missing text in the graphic description.

Change:
mfgr.DrawString("Test

To:
mfgr.DrawString("Test String", fnt, Brushes.Yellow, 120, 100)
